perhaps it's finally
time to set up boxes,
get out your packing tape,
call the moving van?

How to Cook a Wolf
So anyway. Thinking about war-time cooking made me think of this. And led me, in search of MFK & Wolf, to a charming bit of writing (and another magnificent blog to explore). Won't get long-winded about this. Here's an excerpt from said blog (and a hat-tip to Katherine Sharpe, the authoress):
"That, to me, is Fisher’s lesson: that you can eat (or, by extension, do anything) with intentionality, composure, and in the way that most pleases you—and that, within limits, you can do this regardless of how well-off you happen to be. If you get the hang of it, she suggests, other people will see these simple achievements as a remarkable and powerful thing. If you manage not to be blown off course by the whims and expectations of others, you might even make people mad occasionally."

home again home again jiggety jig (II)
should one draw, blog, write,
empty the dishwasher, read,
answer emails, tackle projects,
organize mountain of books,
attempt to capture the summer
in 500 words,
or walk the dog?
(also: the springtime-new wisteria needs water)
and, soon, i have something beautiful
to tell you about. written words.
divine ones. [see How to post, above]
(sadie awaits. her leash at the ready.
we walk.)

mobility and fairy tales
Shedworking makes me happy.
It just seems to always make me happy.
thought for the day:
don't ever discount the luxury of a smaller
place and a light suitcase. mobility: nice.
(granted, the fairy tale above is somewhat of
a fixer-upper. but it is crazy sweet, nonetheless.)
